The main topic of conversation at the moment is the state of the road west of the village. The boys are doing a tremendous job filling in holes but I don鈥檛 think anyone realised how little foundation there was. One moment it looks fine, then a few cracks appear, and then there is a big hole and a small pile of crumbled tar. Strangely enough the holes don鈥檛 seem to expand. Once the matting is exposed it is obvious there is nothing underneath but peat. They are laying new matting and spreading type one aggregate on top (I鈥檓 picking up the lingo, type 1 has a density of 1.7, while the stone is only 1.4, so the trailers look fuller carrying stone) but the journey to the village is taking longer and I can鈥檛 use fourth gear at all. I wouldn鈥檛 recommend anyone to bring a Lotus over at the moment.
The runway is taking shape. There must be some alternative uses for it when it isn鈥檛 actually having planes land on it. The obvious one is drag racing but I鈥檓 wondering about some sort of curling with the stones made from used bearings rescued from the dump. Or we could make a giant skate board ramp, but the banking might make it tricky for the planes to land.
There are a few yachts about and the corncrakes are quite visible at the moment so the visitors can do the normal exploring, although the airport does occupy a significant part of their evening conversation too.
At the moment Nobby is doing the dumper truck hill-climb. If he drives flat-out at his pile of stone how high can he get the dumper before it stops. Today鈥檚 barge is the Nord Star which has a Swedish captain and a Polish crew. They buy their stores here. I don鈥檛 think Coll has ever been the most convenient place to shop before! The other barge has a very Irish skipper, a Russian and two more Nordic crew, I wonder how they chat to each other.
